My final [crosses fingers] semester began this week. Winter 2005 appears to be a semester of old faces. A fellow tutor and classmate from Japanese are in PoliSci. The professor, Dr. something-or-other, reminds me of the comic book store owner from the Simpsons in looks and manner. LoL. For Italian, I have Professore AdT, who is a fun teacher and it should be a good semester. Someone from Gagliano Aterno is also in my class. Ifm not sure about Editing because its first meeting isnft until tomorrow evening but I have the same professor I had for my screenwriting class. She is a kooky woman with wild dark hair that surrounds her head in a curly frizz. She is tall, about my motherfs height, and dresses mostly in slacks and sweaters. Her classes are also extremely structured with a lot of outside work... at least, thatfs how the screenwriting class was. The professor for my other production class works in the industry and he seems very open minded. He also seems like a sweetheart who'll give you compliments even if it is complete BS. LoL. Other people in the class that Ifve met before: Clark Kent -- Screenwriting, TVCrit; Jo -- Writing for TV/Radio, Screenwriting, Mass Communications; Billie Idol -- Screenwriting, Publishing on the Internet; PETA -- Editing.

The Japanese Embassy has my application. I just have to see whether I get an interview. If it doesn't work out, though, I've been researching other teaching abroad programs. I also looked a bit into a few communication field internships/jobs in California and New York. I guess I don't want to plan too much because... well... things donft always work out no matter how much you plan it, ne?
